TEANECK — Authorities have charged an alleged drug dealer with a shooting that occurred over the weekend, and are still searching for another.

According to Bergen County Prosecutor John L. Molinelli, Teaneck police first received information that Durelle Whitening and his neighbor, Anthony Trumpet, were selling drugs. Over the next several days, undercover detectives purchased crack cocaine and marijuana from both men.

During the early morning hours of Sept. 9, police were called to the intersection of Congress Avenue and Route 4 for a reported assault and shooting.

An investigation led police to believe that Whitening had brandished a handgun during the incident, and later fired a single shot into a female victim's vehicle. Police also recovered a fragmented bullet at the scene, according to Molinelli.

After the shooting, detectives obtained search warrants for the Cedar Lane homes where the men live.

In Trumpet's home, they uncovered a defaced sawed-off shotgun with a pistol grip, a .25 caliber revolver, a 9mm semi-automatic handgun, ammunition, marijuana and drug distribution paraphernalia. Molinelli said. Additional ammunition was found in Whitening's residence.

Whitening, 28, was arrested and charged with aggravated assault by attempting to cause serious bodily injury to another, possession of a weapon without a permit, and various other drug and weapons charges. He is being held at the Bergen County Jail in lieu of $150,000 bail, with no 10 percent option.

Trumpet, 31, who is also facing drug and weapons charges, remains at large.
